Md Rasedul Islam, PhD is currently a tenure-track assistant professor in Richard. J Resch School of Engineering in University of Wisconsin – Green Bay (UWGB), WI, USA. As a bio-robotics researcher, he has been researching to develop novel and patient-tailored robotic system for upper limb rehabilitation of post-stroke patients. Dr. Islam, in his PhD, have engineered a 7 DOF upper limb exoskeleton robot with Ergonomic Shoulder Actuation to provide therapy for a wide range of motion. He has also worked on supervised and telerehabilitation of upper limb impairments using social robots. Besides, Dr. Islam’s research interest extends to ergonomic mechanism, data-driven control, intelligent control, industrial automation and process control. Dr Islam has obtained PhD in mechanical engineering (emphasis on robotics and control) from University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee (UWM), WI, USA in 2020. During his graduate studies, he has been awarded two prestigious fellowships (i.e., Distinguished Graduate Student Fellowship and Distinguished Dissertation Fellowship). Earlier, he has graduated B.S in Mechanical Engineering from Khulna University of Engineering & Technology (KUET), Khulna, Bangladesh, in 2012. Soon after his B.S, he has joined as Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering in KUET.
